Seam up front gives a pointy/ faux nipple look. Band needs to be smaller. Elastic that runs across top of cup to gore is flat, but might be because cup not fully filled out. If I push boobs up, it fills out better. They look flat in bra. Would try 65E. Wish this bra fit because it's comfortable.

Wrinkling in bra near top of cup. Would try 65E. Wish this bra fit because it's comfortable and looks good under a tshirt.
This bra does not flatter me at all. I have soft tissue so the straps pull the lace cups too much causing a weird shape. Loosening the strap helps a bit but not enough. Gore digs in. A cup size up might help but overall this bra is not for me.
I first tried this in a 32e but the cups and band felt big so I sized down to 30E and the cups are still big. Gives me cone boob, wrinkles at top, and straps are too wide. Don't think I can do a 30D because the wires aren't very wide and I need a bit more coverage. Sad because I love the lace on this one
If you cannot return the bra, and you like the look and fit overall, you could tack down the lace at the the gore with a few stitches. I have revived a number of bras this way.
The fit of the cups are weird on this bra. At first it seems like a good fit but then the wires at the bottom lift up near the gore. I'm thinking there isn't enough immediate projection at the bottom for me. Straps are too wide for me too. I feel like I'm going to fall out of this bra or I get this "not secure" feeling. I will pass on this one. A cup bigger will prob be too far back on the sides.
Makes my boobs look totally transformed in the best way. Beautiful lift, shape, and separation. Totally forward facing and rounded, which suits my center-full and close-set shape. Magically, it makes my differently-sized boobs look symmetrical, too! It's my perfect bra, save for the fact that it's not invisible under tight/thin shirts.
This bra is very pretty and the cups have some stretch. I am on the tightest hook and the cups are just a tad too big. Will try in a 30E to compare. Straps are borderline too wide but maybe a size down will help. Wires are a tad too high on the side as well.
This bra doesn't fit me very well and I think it's because I am center full and close set. The top part of the cup is a thin mesh like fabric and the bottom is thicker and supportive. I get quad boob in two places. Where the mesh starts and the top. Band feels too big so I would need a 30. Wire digs in on the side and is too far back. Not the bra for me.
After trying the Fantasies Rebecca Moulded bra the material on this bra is way better. It's soft and stretchy and feels nice to touch. Band feels good and true to size. I really wish this fit my cup area better. Area near the armpit is a bit to high for me and the top of the cups still give slight quad boob but I think they are just too separate for my close set center full chests. If I could get this material and fit in a half cup or balconette I think it would be a really good fit. I wish the sides were not as tall too. Also, the name says molded but it's not a molded cup like I was thinking but like stretch lace with a more sturdy fabric at the bottom.
Been wearing this bra about two years now. I know that's way too long haha. Band stretched out and cups never fit me right but I just went with it because it was ok. For close set breast this isn't the best as I have spillage in the middle after a scoop and swoop. Gore doesn't lay flat either.
I'd be curious to see how this would fit you in a DD, the gore isn't sitting flat because the cups are too small if I had to guess. It could also be your a close pair. Maybe a Balconette would better suit your needs?
Yes I am very close set, like a pinky finger distance. Been trying a lot of balconettes but the gore doesn't seem to be skinny enough, I've read that polish brands may be a better fit. I was looking to try this same bra in a 30E (I don't think Chantelle has DD). But I also have a feeling if I got any bigger in the cup on this I will have gapping near the top at the strap since I'm pretty bottom heavy. Waiting on Amazon to let me do another try before your buy round lol...
Oh yeah! Give the Polish brands a try, I've heard a lot of good things about them for center full and close pairs.
The bra is so soft and very comfortable. Pretty sure I could have gone down a band and cup size though. The cup wrinkles are the top and around armpit. I have projected breasts but this is the only bra I’ve owned that almost made them look shallow… It’s still unbelievably comfortable to wear.
I so wish this fit! Everything is perfect, gore tacks, wires the right height, immediate projection. BUT I just can’t fill the top. There is no stretch to the material and the top slightly gapes. It would be a dream bra if the top has stretch lace.
The band is nice and tight, very little stretch. I prefer a 28 band so a tight 30 was a surprise. Bottom cup feels supportive, straps are just the right width. The search continues.
Holds the girls down for sure! Its too big for me so I don't wear it unfortunately. I would need two cups smaller for the compression type fit I want for activities.
This bra is not a perfect fit for me but it's the closest so far! The only big problems are that the gore is too wide and that after only three wears, I noticed it fits best on the tightest hooks. I might see if I get a better fit in a 32. I measure US 34H, but usually 34G is a better fit for me in French brands.
The top of the cup on my smaller side tends to wrinkle, although I think that's unavoidable with over a full cup size difference between my breasts. One cup size up would be a tiny bit better fit on ...my larger side as I feel that I'm spilling slightly, but the smaller side would be super empty. It's a little shallow at the wire, although I can smooth out the wrinkles and it's not enough to be a problem. The gore is also a bit high for me and presses in, but it's not painful.
This bra is more full coverage and I can't wear it under sleeveless tops because it shows on the sides. However, the seams are very flat and and it's okay for me under T-shits. The seams can barely be seen and the lace is very flat, and on me it gives a mostly smooth look. Read more 111 more words
Purchased at Top Drawer Lingerie in June 2023. The purpose was to go through the TSA Leonidas 3D scanner without my boobs scanning as suspicious objects. It works great for that purpose. It is very comfortable as well. Please note that I am a 36F in Panache and that I have to buy a 38E for any Chantelle bra, because their bands run small.
